Product details
Overview
ADS7229IPWRG4 from Texas Instruments is a low-power, 12-bit, 1 MSPS successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter with unipolar input range (0 V to VREF), SPI/DSP-compatible serial interface, and built-in conversion clock. It operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V analog supply, delivers ±0.15 LSB typical INL, 73.9 dB SNR at 10 kHz, and supports daisy-chain mode for multi-ADC systems in industrial data acquisition.
For engineers reviewing the ADS7229IPWRG4 datasheet, ADS7229IPWRG4 pinout, ADS7229IPWRG4 application, or ADS7229IPWRG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 12-bit resolution with no missing codes, 1 MHz throughput at 3–5.5 V, integrated sample-and-hold, programmable EOC/INT polarity, and TSSOP-16 package compatibility with industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C).
Technical Context
The ADS7229IPWRG4 implements a capacitor-based SAR architecture with inherent sample-and-hold, supporting both manual (CONVST-triggered) and auto-triggered conversion modes. Its internal 21–24.5 MHz conversion clock eliminates external timing components, while the SPI-compatible serial interface supports up to 50 MHz SCLK and daisy-chain operation.
It features three power-down modes-deep power-down (1 µA), nap (0.5 µA), and auto-nap-with global CONVST independent of CS, and accepts unipolar differential inputs (+IN/–IN) referenced to an external voltage (0.3 V to +VA). The device uses separate analog (+VA) and digital I/O (+VBD) supplies for noise isolation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit SAR with no missing codes - guarantees monotonicity and full code coverage for precision measurement. |
| Sampling Rate | 1 MSPS at +VA = 3–5.5 V; 900 kSPS at +VA = 2.7–3 V - enables high-speed acquisition without external clock dependency. |
| INL / DNL | ±0.15 LSB typ / ±0.12 LSB typ - ensures accurate linearity for sensor signal digitization in closed-loop control. |
| SNR / THD | 73.9 dB / –88.5 dB at fIN = 10 kHz - supports high-fidelity signal capture in transducer and medical instrumentation. |
| Power Dissipation | 13.7 mW at 1 MSPS, +VA = 3 V, +VBD = 1.8 V - enables battery-powered or thermally constrained embedded designs. |
| Reference Input | External unipolar reference (0.3 V to +VA) - allows flexible full-scale adjustment from 2.5 V to 5 V for varying sensor output ranges. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial process control, motor drives, and automated test equipment environments. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-16 package (PW designation), 5.0 mm × 4.4 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, exposed thermal pad not internally connected to substrate - requires PCB-level grounding per TI layout guidelines.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| +VA (Pin 1) | Analog supply | 2.7–5.5 V analog rail powering SAR core and reference buffer; decoupling critical for AC performance. |
| +VBD (Pin 16) | Digital I/O supply | 1.65–5.5 V logic rail for SCLK/SDI/SDO/FS/CS; enables level-shifting between analog and digital domains. |
| +IN (Pin 3) | Noninverting analog input | Differential input pair with –IN; accepts 0 V to VREF unipolar signals (e.g., bridge sensor outputs). |
| –IN (Pin 4) | Inverting analog input | Typically tied to AGND; defines common-mode point for differential sampling and CMRR optimization. |
| REF+ (Pin 7) | External reference positive | Accepts precision voltage reference (e.g., REF5025); sets full-scale range and directly impacts gain accuracy. |
| REF– (Pin 6) | Reference negative | Must connect to AGND via dedicated low-inductance path to minimize reference noise coupling. |
| CONVST (Pin 9) | Conversion start trigger | Edge-sensitive input freezing sample-and-hold; global across CS state - simplifies timing in multi-device systems. |
| EOC/INT/CDI (Pin 10) | Status/data I/O | Configurable as end-of-conversion flag, interrupt, or daisy-chain data input - enables flexible system synchronization. |
| FS/CS (Pin 11) | Frame sync / chip select | Active-low SPI slave select; also serves as frame sync for TMS320 DSP interfaces. |
| SCLK (Pin 15) | Serial clock input | Up to 50 MHz clock for SPI transfers; doubles as conversion clock when internal CCLK disabled. |
| SDI (Pin 12) | Serial data input | Accepts configuration commands (e.g., TAG bit, EOC polarity) and software reset instructions. |
| SDO (Pin 13) | Serial data output | Tri-state output delivering 12-bit straight-binary result MSB-first; supports daisy-chain readout. |
| AGND (Pin 5) | Analog ground | Primary return for analog circuitry; must be separated from BDGND to prevent digital noise injection. |
| BDGND (Pin 14) | Digital interface ground | Return for +VBD-supplied logic; isolated from AGND to maintain PSRR and SNR integrity. |
| NC (Pin 8) | No connection | Internally unconnected; must remain floating or grounded per PCB layout best practices. |
| RESERVED (Pin 2) | Internal function | TI-recommended tie to AGND or +VA; not user-accessible for signal routing or configuration. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Built-in conversion clock (CCLK) | 21–24.5 MHz internal oscillator eliminates need for external timing components and reduces BOM count. |
| Programmable EOC/INT polarity | Allows firmware to match active-high or active-low interrupt logic without external inverters or GPIO reassignment. |
| Daisy-chain mode support | Enables synchronous readout of multiple ADS7229IPWRG4 devices using single SCLK/SDI/SDO bus - saves MCU pins and simplifies firmware. |
| Global CONVST independent of CS | Permits simultaneous sampling across multiple converters even when individual CS lines are asserted at different times. |
| Three-tier power-down modes | Deep (1 µA), Nap (0.5 µA), and Auto-Nap (dynamic entry/exit) enable fine-grained energy management in portable or always-on systems. |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate of the ADS7229IPWRG4 under 3V analog supply?
The ADS7229IPWRG4 achieves 900 kSPS at +VA = 2.7–3.0 V and 1 MSPS at +VA = 3.0–5.5 V. This dual-rate behavior is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table for 2.7 V ≤ +VA ≤ 3.6 V conditions, with throughput dropping to 0.9 MHz below 3.0 V to maintain timing margins and AC performance.
Does the ADS7229IPWRG4 require an external reference voltage?
Yes, the ADS7229IPWRG4 requires an external reference applied between REF+ and REF– pins. It accepts 0.3 V to +VA, with typical use cases at 2.5 V or 5 V. The device does not include an internal reference; reference accuracy directly determines system gain error, which is ±0.002% FSR typical at 5 V.
Can the ADS7229IPWRG4 operate in daisy-chain mode with other ADCs?
Yes, the ADS7229IPWRG4 supports daisy-chain mode using the EOC/INT/CDI pin as chain data input and SDO as chain data output. Multiple devices share one SCLK and SDI line, with results read sequentially - confirmed in the Functional Block Diagram and Timing Characteristics sections of the SBAS437A datasheet.
What are the power-down current levels for the ADS7229IPWRG4?
The ADS7229IPWRG4 offers three power-down states: deep power-down draws 1 µA max, nap mode consumes 0.5 µA max, and auto-nap dynamically enters/exits nap based on conversion activity. These values are measured at VA = 3 V and are specified in the Power-Supply Requirements section of the datasheet.
Is the ADS7229IPWRG4 pin-compatible with the ADS7230 series?
No, the ADS7229IPWRG4 is not pin-compatible with the ADS7230. While both share the same TSSOP-16 package footprint, ADS7230 replaces –IN with COM and adds +IN0/+IN1 pins (requiring different pin assignments), and its RESERVED pin (Pin 12) functions as +IN1. Pin mapping differences are explicitly shown in the Terminal Functions tables for each device.
